[Intro]
Em
[Verse]
She's like the Amswallow that Dflies on Emhigh
She's like the Amriver that Dnever runs Emdry
She's like the Amsun beaming Don the lea Emshore
I love my Amlove, but Dlove is no Emmore
[Verse]
A maiden inAmto her garDden did Emgo
For to Ampluck her some Dwild primEmrose
The more she Amplucked, the Dmore she did Empull
Until this Ammaiden's Dapron was Emfull
[Verse 3]
Then out of these Amroses she Dmade a Embed
A scarlet Ampillow Dfor her Emhead
She laid her Amdown, no Dwords she did Emspeak
And then this Ammaiden's Dheart, it did Embreak
[Instrumental
Em   Am   D   Em
Em   Am   D   Em
Em   Am   D   Em
Em   Am   D   Em
[Verse]
She's like the Amswallow that Dflies on Emhigh
She's like the Amriver that Dnever runs Emdry
She's like the Amsun beaming Don the lea Emshore
I love my Amlove, but Dlove is no Emmore

[Intro]

[Verse]

Am D Em

She's like the swallow that flies on high

Am D Em

She's like the river that never runs dry

Am D Em

She's like the sun beaming on the lea shore

Am D Em

I love my love, but love is no more

[Verse]

Am D Em

A maiden into her garden did go

Am D Em

For to pluck her some wild primrose

Am D Em

The more she plucked, the more she did pull

Am D Em

Until this maiden's apron was full

[Verse 3]

Am D Em

Then out of these roses she made a bed

Am D Em

A scarlet pillow for her head

Am D Em

She laid her down, no words she did speak

Am D Em

And then this maiden's heart, it did break

[Instrumental
